Games to be played 9-10 January

After last weeks postponement the first team start 2016 with a cup game; they welcome Shrivenham to Scours Lane in the Bluefin Sports Supplementary Challenge Cup second round. Woodley's opponents also play at step six and like United have struggled this season.

Like the first team the reserves game last week fell foul of the weather. They will try and play their cup game at Compton this Saturday at the second attempt. Victory for the 'A' side will see them win six on the spin; they host Hurley also in the cup. The 'B' team will go above their opponents if they pick up three points at Hurst 'A'.

The under 16's go to Sandhurst Town Boys; Woodley are two places and five points better off than their opposition. The under 15's face a home derby against the team directly above them; United will look to get closer to a Saints Tigers side who have played three more games and have five more points.

The under 14's Hammers start the year in the trickiest way possible, they are away at unbeaten league leaders Sandhurst Town Reds. The under 14's Spitfires host fourth placed Burghfield United whilst the under 14's Meteors go to a Hearts of Teddlothian Tigers side who have picked up just one point from nine games.

Featured age group – under 12's

The Spitfires will hope to take their league form into the cup; they are away at Theale Tigers. A win for the Tigers will see them rack up their tenth consecutive league victory; they visit AFC Whitchurch whilst in the same division the Hurricanes visit pointless Hurst Youth FC Hurricanes. The Cyclones who are one place off the foot of the table go to third placed Wokingham & Emmbrook FC Orange. The Tornadoes have a friendly at Rotherfield United FC Dominators.

Sunday teams

The first team host mid table Roebuck; a win for Woodley will see them get within three points of their opponents. The reserves host Finchampstead Athletic Sunday 'A' who are three points and two places worse off than Woodley.
